Block and Estate Management is about the minutia done well: the role of a Managing Agent is technical, administrative, practical and political. It takes joined up thinking to do what we do well as well as sufficient resource to react to whatever is necessary day-to-day.
As a Managing Agent we know our true business is building relationships with people. Our people are empowered and know that they can make a difference to how people feel about where they live. We call our 'Property Manager's 'Relationship Managers’ to embody our values which are to build relationships, add value, and to take the initiative. We lead the market in transparency and focusing on risk, cash, repairs and place making, usually in that order, and was the first Managing Agent to introduce a ' money back guarantee ’.
Being who we are would be impossible without our passionately committed people, whose qualifications we sponsor and who we support professionally to be the best they can be, as achieving a national training award and our Silver IIP status confirms.

The app and events managed by the building make it feel like a true community and the lettings and events coordinator is kind, proactive and accommodating. She has made our time here all the more enjoyable and we cannot thank her enough."

"We have had a problem with noise from the flat above us in Lady Isle House Ferry Court Cardiff. We contacted a Mr Paul Staniforth who immediately became involved and addressed the situation. We really do appreciate what he has done for us and cannot thank him enough. Once again a big thank you to Mr Staniforth. The noise above was intolerable."

Surbiton Cultural Scene
Surbiton, located in South West London, has a rich history that reflects its transformation from rural farmland to a bustling suburban area:
Early Origins: The name "Surbiton" is derived from Old English, meaning "southern grange" or "outlying farm." It was historically part of the royal manor of Kingston and primarily used for agriculture.
Railway Development: Surbiton began to develop significantly in the 1830s when plans to build a railway through Kingston were rejected. Instead, the railway was routed through Surbiton, leading to the opening of Surbiton railway station in 1838. This made Surbiton a popular location for commuters.
Urban Growth: The area saw rapid urbanization in the 19th century, with the construction of grand townhouses and Art Deco buildings. It became a desirable residential area for those seeking to escape the crowded city.
Modern Era: Today, Surbiton is known for its blend of historical architecture and modern amenities, making it a vibrant and attractive suburb
